Just realized I hadn’t changed the title “Now In The High Desert” to “Now In Maine” and since we have had weeks and weeks of rain it seemed a foolish thing to forget.

Everything is soggy or damp. Mold and mildew are everywhere. My garden is sodden. The peppers are dead and slugs have ravaged everything but the peas and tomatoes. I had a great crop of spinach coming in and it has all disppeared but for maybe five plants and it is pouring even as I write.
